Minolia pompiliodes is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Solariellidae. [1]
The height of the shell attains 6 mm, its diameter 9 mm. The shell has a conical and depressed shape. It has five whorls. The outer lip is thin. The columellar margin is reflected at the angle near the umbilicus.
This is a most beautiful species, smooth, shining, ornamented with a beautiful regular series of white spots upon a bright fawn-coloured ground. At the periphery, which is not angled, the shell is whitish, with another line of zigzagged pale-brown markings more flame-shaped at the base. Around the deep umbilicus, the margin of which is very slightly angled, a row of dark-brown flames alternates with the white. The interior of the almost round aperture is smooth and beautifully margaritaceous. [2]
The marine species occurs off the Philippines.
